In its Monday announcement, the government did not fail to note the outsize role that Harvard plays in the public imagination, which makes it all the more tantalizing a target.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cHarvard has served as a symbol of the American dream for generations \u2014 the pinnacle aspiration for students all over the world to work hard and earn admission to the storied institution,\u201d Linda McMahon, the secretary of education, said in the announcement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cHarvard\u2019s failure to protect students on campus from antisemitic discrimination \u2014 all while promoting divisive ideologies over free inquiry \u2014 has put its reputation in serious jeopardy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The statement said the government would collaborate with contracting agencies to assess whether to issue stop-work orders for any of the contracts under review.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It was not clear how the government had arrived at the figure of nearly $9 billion in grants for Harvard and its affiliates. But in his message, Dr. Garber indicated that it included money for hospitals affiliated with Harvard\u2019s medical schools, like Mass General Brigham, the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Boston Children\u2019s Hospital.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Harvard and other universities have taken a number of steps in the wake of campus protests against the war in Gaza that some said veered into antisemitism, including <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/11\/09\/us\/politics\/river-to-the-sea-israel-gaza-palestinians.html\" title=\"\">highly contested chants by some pro-Palestinian demonstrators<\/a> such as \u201cfrom the river to the sea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">For example, Harvard adopted a definition of antisemitism that labels some criticism of Israel as antisemitic, a move praised by some Jewish students and faculty members but condemned by free expression advocates. It clarified that both Jewish and Israeli identities are covered by its anti-discrimination and anti-bullying policies. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Lawrence H. Summers, the former Treasury secretary and former Harvard president, called the review \u201ca pretext for going after truth-seeking institutions that are threatening to would-be authoritarians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Antisemitism has been a genuine problem at Harvard, he said. \u201cJust because Donald Trump says something doesn\u2019t make it wrong, and Harvard has been way too slow in responding to the antisemitism,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cHarvard has made real errors,\u201d Mr. Summers said. \u201cBut Harvard\u2019s flaws do not remotely justify what is being threatened.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the case of Columbia, the same three agencies \u2014 the Department of Health and Human Services, the Education Department and the General Services Administration \u2014 announced an investigation on March 3 into the school\u2019s federal grants and contracts. They said the review was being conducted in conjunction with \u201congoing investigations for potential violations of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.\u201d (Title VI prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color and national origin in programs receiving federal subsidies.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A few days later, the government stripped $400 million in federal funding from Columbia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In an effort to recover that money, Columbia acceded to an initial set of demands by the Trump administration, including strengthening its campus security force and imposing greater oversight of its Middle Eastern, South Asian and African studies department, among other concessions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Some faculty members fiercely objected to the concessions, and on Friday, the university replaced the interim president who had overseen the negotiations, Katrina Armstrong, with Claire Shipman, a journalist who had been the co-chair of the university\u2019s board of trustees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The government has not said that the university\u2019s funding will be reinstated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Harvard and Columbia were among the 10 universities that a federal task force said in February it was reviewing because of possible antisemitic activity on campuses. Soon after, Harvard said it was placing a freeze on staff and faculty hiring, given the uncertain environment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a way, the Trump administration\u2019s campaign against antisemitism was inspired by events at Harvard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Immediately after the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks on Israel, a coalition of Harvard student groups, under the banner of Harvard Palestine Solidarity Groups, wrote a letter declaring \u201cthe Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At the time, Mr. Summers condemned the university\u2019s leadership for not denouncing the student letter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Harvard\u2019s president at the time, Claudine Gay, tried to make amends but was ultimately pressured to resign after testimony in front of a congressional committee. Under questioning, she said that whether students would be punished for antisemitic remarks, like advocating for genocide, depended on the context.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the following months, Harvard adopted a posture of institutional neutrality, saying it would no longer take positions on matters outside the university.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Throughout the last school year, Harvard\u2019s campus was rocked by demonstrations and confrontations between pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian students. At one point the university locked its gates to restrict who could enter Harvard Yard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Students set up tents in an encampment last spring, and in the fall, the statue of John Harvard was vandalized with red paint. In October, pro-Palestinian demonstrators staged a silent protest at Widener library, the main library, where they taped signs like \u201cfree Palestine\u201d and \u201cHarvard Divest from Death\u201d to their laptops.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Harvard, like other universities, began to crack down with new rules on protests and speech. In recent months, the protest movement has been quieter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Shabbos Kestenbaum, a recent graduate who is suing Harvard for not taking antisemitism seriously, said he was \u201celated\u201d on Monday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThis is precisely why I campaigned and voted for President Trump,\u201d said Mr. Kestenbaum,<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">, who spoke at the Republican National Convention, said he had been in communication with members of the Trump administration. \u201cIf Harvard is not scared,\u201d he said, \u201cit simply means they\u2019re not paying attention, because more accountability is on the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Harvard is among the world\u2019s wealthiest institutions, with an endowment fund of more than $50 billion. Just recently, it announced that it was increasing its financial aid package for students, making tuition free for families with income of $200,000 and under.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-7\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The administration\u2019s attack on universities has profound implications for the First Amendment and the government\u2019s power to police protests, even when they occur on private campuses. There are also likely to be enormous economic and academic repercussions if, for example, the government cuts off substantial money to Harvard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Although private philanthropy is important, federal funding has long been the lifeblood of American academic research, and university leaders have warned that few institutions can continue marshaling the financial firepower for projects if Washington stops helping with the bills. Shutdowns, even temporary ones, of research programs could lead to new layoffs and hiring freezes that could trickle through local economies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But the administration came to power in January bristling with rage toward the most elite realms of American higher education. As candidates, Donald J. Trump depicted top universities as overrun by \u201cMarxists, maniacs and lunatics,\u201d and JD Vance derided them as \u201cinsane.\u201d (Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance both hold degrees from Ivy League universities.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">And Mr. Trump himself subsequently vowed on social media that \u201cAll Federal Funding will STOP for any College, School, or University that allows illegal protests.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Ted Mitchell, the president of the American Council on Education, warned Monday that the government was adopting a pattern of persecution.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-8\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe administration has clearly found a playbook, and we\u2019re seeing it again,\u201d said Dr. Mitchell, who decried what he called the use of \u201cunsubstantiated, amorphous claims of antisemitism against an institution and pre-emptive hostage-taking\u201d tied to funding.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The government, Dr. Mitchell noted, had long used a measured, back-and-forth process with colleges to address potential civil rights violations. He said he feared that the Trump administration\u2019s strategy would undermine due process while threatening research and doing little to protect Jewish people on campuses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Other institutions targeted by the antisemitism task force were George Washington University; Johns Hopkins University; New York University; Northwestern University; the University of California, Los Angeles; the University of California, Berkeley; the University of Minnesota; and the University of Southern California.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Although much of the administration\u2019s focus has been on what it sees as endemic antisemitism on American campuses, it also paused about $175 million in funding for the University of Pennsylvania because it had allowed a transgender woman onto its women\u2019s swim team in 2022.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
